Pain is a pesky part of being human. I've learned it feels like a stab wound to the heart, something I wish we could all do without. Pain is a sudden hurt that can't be escaped. But then I have also learned that because of pain, I can feel the beauty, tenderness, and freedom of healing. Pain feels like a stab wound, but the uplifting feeling when you can heal is something I think about more when I look back at the past.
